Just a follow up on two items - - Vendors will not be allowed in space. Sorry, but there are technical limitations.
There are also technical limitations with having more than one multiplayer vehicle decorated at the same time. That won't be possible. I wish it were different, but it can't be. Sorry.
The SoroSuub PLY 3000 is supposed to be "the ultimate party vessel" ...
...
BUT ... you can't set up a Vendor to provide drinks etc for your guests
The SoroSuub is supposed to be a COOL vessel for the long time players
...
BUT ... if you want to go on a Spacehunt with your friends (which you probably want to do a lot as a longtimer)in another Multi-Person-Craft like the even cooler YT-1300 then you have to completly undecorate the eight room ultimate party vessel (which is probably very very full as a longtimer) ?!?!?!
I just can't find any logic or coolness in any of this ... so much for "We want to make the best game ever" ... haha ... this is so sad
I guess by not being able to put vendors on your ship, this is what SOE meant when they said JTL "completely integrates" with SWG... Mmmm, seamless...

Its wasted art-team resources. Any serious JTL player who wants a mulit-passenger ship will be forced to go with another ship. These wil be deleted almost right away to make room for them.

Oh, and to everyone worried about not paying for 6 months strait and not getting the reward, I asked a csr about having a 3-5 day period where my account is not active,he said I'll still get it. You just can't have like a 60-day break and expect to get it.
You qualify - - we allowed for things like that when we coded the veteran flags...not a lot, but just enough for people who ran into situations like this.
This may be beating a dead horse, but I'm still unclear on when we will likely see the SoroSuub Luxury Yacht 3000 in JTL beta -- will the Account Veteransbe able to test them out to see if we can find anybugs and such? As well as see if the "Veteran Flags" are working properly?
I'm aware that the Yacht may have been tested internally to the fullest extent, but you never know.

Does anyone actually READ!?!? Right in the description it says the ship is invulnerable. Apparently no one has actually bothered to read the official page. The ship is a party/touring ship. It cannot be destroyed. The devs are not going to be giving anyone an uber ship. There will be other ships you can build and upgrade that will be just as cool. The incessant whining and crying over this is just intolerable. Your given a cool free ship and all everyone can do is whine and cry that's it not as powerful as a Star Destroyer or a MonCal Cruiser. I suggest you all wait until the rest of the ships are reviled to the public, after all TH did say in this thread there will be 5 multiplayer ships.

Invulnerable = possible explot.
Having to undecorate any time you want to take a different multi-person ship into space = HUGE annoyance.
Non-upgradeable = one more reason not to bother with it.

heh tho i understand the restrictions of only having one multi ship with items in it useable at a time .. i still say on the vet ship ... make it pre-decorated ... like some of the structures in cities ... maybe with some items that are not available in game ... since the ship is eyecandy anyways .. why not do this? ... if the user/person wants a selection maybe have like 2 or 3 options for an arrangement setup that the person chooses when launching the ship ... and as a benefit for not having it user decorateable ... make it so it can be used as a med center or a cantina ... yeah i know the coding issues and such ... but this idea would at least make it something that more people would want to use ... since with the current plans for ships it will pretty much be useless for anyone that also plans on having a job as a pilot in game as well ... (and i still think it should not count twards the 2 ship limit ... make it like that annoying green R2 unit)

Why do all you people want 2 multi-pass ships, if the number of ships we are alowed is 3 why would you want 2 of them to be multi-pass? What is the point of having 2 of them someone plz tell me. i am only going to have 1 and thats the yacht why i hear you cry why not have a combat multi-pass ship, well it is simple some one else will have one and if i want to have combat in space in a multi-pass ship i will find a mate with one.

easy. To my knowledge all veteran players get a free lady luck ship, so i am going to have one lady luck, one yt-1300 for multi-passenger combat, and one starfighter for single-player combat. This is most likely what alot of people want to do.

WHY NOT?!?! Why do you keep asking that question. People tend to like variety, what concern is it of yours why someone would want 2 multi-person ships.
Why? BECAUSE THEY CAN NOW STOP ASKING!!!!!!!!
